The Rey Juan Carlos University states:
- Your solidarity with the population of Ukraine and, especially, with its universities.
- It strongly condemns the attack.
- It expressly calls on all members of its university community to do everything possible to denounce and pressure, in order to achieve an end to this unacceptable situation.
- It commits itself to the Ukrainian universities, and to the population in general, to collaborate in any initiative that is possible and that is designed to provide support.
- It will use all its channels to spread its absolute rejection of these actions contrary to the international order.
- It undertakes not to collaborate, while this situation lasts, with any agency of the Russian government or of other countries that support this invasion.
- It will support all those Russian universities and individuals who oppose this violation of international law.
The university, guarantor of the transmission of values and scrupulous respect for the Rule of Law, cannot remain on the sidelines, nor show lukewarmness, when situations arise that go against its essence: freedom, dialogue, debate, diversity of opinions and critical thinking.
The Rey Juan Carlos University is clear that the defense of our democracies and the principles of human rights common to European nations are at stake.
This University does not doubt the place where it clearly wants to be, together with the people of Ukraine and its higher education institutions.
